I just like laughing at these threads, everyone says they're vegetarian because they don't like the thought of animals being killed.
I think vegetarians are pathetic. Yes, I said pathetic.
Vegans on the other hand, I have no problem with - it's their beliefs, their life, they can do what they want with it.
Vegans cut meat and all produce that comes from animals out all together, because they feel it's wrong. Vegetarians are just doing a half-assed job, and are quite hypocritical IMO. How can someone be against killing/mistreating of animals and still eat/drink cheese/milk/eggs/fish etc? The animals are still being bred to serve that purpose - and will probably end up being slaughtered.
I also wonder how many people on this thread that claim to be vegan/vegetarian wear clothing/shoes made from animal parts, or eat crisps/sweets with animal produce in (not just dairy chocolate, most sweets&crisps contain something that came from an animal)

To conclude - vegetarians are stupid, vegans have the right to believe whatever they want
Oh yeah, you can live perfectly healthy eating meat or not eating meat, you just find other sources of nutrients.

One last thing - PETA is the devil in disguise. They blatantly use propaganda and celebrities to intice the gullable and young.

WOOHOO FOR LATE NIGHT RAMBLING.

Good points to be honest, as i said previously i'm going into veganism now, for some it's a long journey, over like 10 years, but meh, they're still cutting out abit of cruelty, also you're not taking notice of vegans/vegetarians who do it for health reasons. The hardest bit for me going vegan is cheese, but i've quit that for 2 weeks and going strong! ^_^ About the clothes etc, currently i wear leather trainers, absolutely despise them but going to wait till they wear out or i can give them to a mate: anyway: one could say that all the chemical processes used to make artificial shoes (forgot the word- tiredness) would actually harm more animals than buying a leather pair of trainers but *shrug*

i think i've said it before, but the only way you can really be nice to animals is to live off homegrown organic fruit and vegetables and walk around naked and dirty.
